Land and Sky is a four-week intensive designed for painters who want to bring more depth, texture, and light into their landscape work. Guided by Martha Johnson, an artist and educator who is celebrated for her expressive approach to the natural world, this course breaks the landscape down into its two most vital elements: the solid structures of the earth and the fluid mood of the sky. Over four weeks, Martha will guide you through the technical and creative methods needed to paint a variety of terrains, from rolling fields and dense forests to rocky horizons, while exploring how different lighting conditions dramatically change a scene. You’ll experiment with capturing specific times of day, changing weather, and atmospheric depth using smart brushwork, value control, and colour temperature. Through live demonstrations and guided feedback, you’ll build a toolkit for painting nature with both realism and personal expression.
